I'm Working On An Expanded G2025

@dsumner I’m interested! What sort of changes have you made? I’ve been considering modifying the map in both eastern Europe and the Middle East…

The 2.0 rules are available for download.

Just an update: upon further examination we’ve discovered that China and the caliphate can use rail to move units to russian front and also that infantry move two spaces in non combat phase. This will dramatically alter my initial assessment of the balance of the game.

I don’t see why not as long as you’re not exceeding the (3) round limit. The rules allow you to pair it with another unit on the next round if the unit it was paired with is destroyed. I think it’d fall into the same category.

Well I gave this a shot and it started of working out well, but then the dice gods turned against me. I think that if the game had gone a little longer, it would have evened out a bit more. I’m hoping to run another game soon and give it another shot to see how it works out this time.

It’s been a while, but I’ve got a couple of ideas I’d like someone other than me to try out and see how they work for you. 1) Increase the attack for Cruise Missiles to a “5”. 2) Decrease the move on Attack Helicopters to “3”. 3) Increase the range on Drones to a “3”, and a “4” for Improved Drones. 4) Allow Fighters to scramble into adjacent Land Zones from Airbases.

If you guys try this stuff out, please let me know how it works out for you.

@noneshallpass There’s a Neutrals set available on the HBG store.

@trig I’d like the addition of Strategic Bombers, Marines/Naval Infantry, along with some more detailed rules for Amphibious Assaults, new drones (Stealth, Strike), the ability to shootdown/destroy drones, Satellite Reconnaissance, Cruisers, Arsenal Ships/Fire Support Vessels, and Bio-Weapons.
